Hi there,
I'm trying to record all the disk access in qemu. When I turned on the
DEBUG_IDE flag, I get debug message with "ide" and "bmdma" headers.
While trying to figure out the details, I record all the ioport access
and compared to guest's IO mapping.
Here's my qemu command:
qemu-system-x86_64 -vnc :1 -hda ubuntu64.12.04.3.img -m 512 -machine
pc,accel=kvm -cpu host -smp 4
Here's my guest VM's IO mapping:
root@kvm-ubuntu-1:~# cat /proc/ioports
0000-0cf7 : PCI Bus 0000:00
0000-001f : dma1
0020-0021 : pic1

c000-c01f : ne2k-pci
c100-c10f : 0000:00:01.1
c100-c10f : ata_piix
I found that "ide" related log are printed when accessing port
0x170~0x177, and "bmdma" related log are printed with port
0xc100~0xc10f.
Thus I get confused of guest OS accessing IDE device via BMDMA. What
is the relationship of IDE and BMDMA? What is the function call
routine when guest OS accesses the IDE device?
Besides, where can I get a detailed information of ATA/IDE programming guidance?
Thanks,
Arthur
